We are hanging in there. Literally. June was busy and rainy. We went to New York and Philadelphia.
Tomorrow we are going to LA, for a mix of business and vacation. I'm actually excited for both.
The summer has been fun, but our lack of any kind of schedule has actually been throwing us off a little. Tae is much less excited about school, now that she realizes that sometimes I don't have to go to work. Mondays are rough.
I feel like there are a lot of transitions going on and that can be disorienting for us. Tae is a creature of habit, and with all the things that are changing, I think she turns to me for stability. She is back to sneaking in to my bed at night.
We have friends that have moved. Tae's best friend at school is gone for the summer, and then off to kindergarten. E was away for work. Tae got strep throat last week. My parents are off on vacation. And tomorrow we hit the road again.
I try to make her world as stable as it can be, but I know there are always things that won't be stable. But, it can be overwhelming sometimes when she clings to me (very literally) to be her rock. And, knowing that there is more change coming down the pipeline... phew. Summer is tiring!!
